Zimbabwe Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide sea ports and ferry terminals tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) maintains this export, last updated on 2026-05-15. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas usually well-mapped and remote areas potentially incomplete.

Use Cases

• Plan maritime logistics networks based on port locations.
• Analyze supply-chain resilience based on ferry terminal infrastructure.
• Model coastal access and development based on mapped port amenities.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map built by volunteers.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Last updated on 2026-05-15.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incomplete.
